a dozen hairy pre-men, right? >grins<

(the city of lost children was the first that popped in mind, but the cinemetography doesn’t line up)

I have an idea but it is still too hot here to render. GPU thermal shutdown. Maybe try with eevee or render some morning when it is cooler.

Are you in southern Cali? I heard it was 105 today.

105 here, but i’m a couple states over from Cali. up by San Ramon, Cali (we have family there) it was a mere 79 … i’m considering disowning them unless they send us some of the cold. rofl

on topic: this theme has entirely too many ideas going through my head … lol. not sure which i’ll pick to do yet.

Hey Modron,

Any chance you could send that east to the Ohio Valley area? I’d love a couple of rainy days right now…

I might be in this week…

My old spectacles are a bit outdated:

Maybe I need some new ones…

If only I could. My dwelling is like a root cellar.

Not California but US southwest desert. I’m well acclimated and I like the heat. Scored 116F on my annual hottest day dunes hike. My small AC is usually fine but this prolonged heat wave makes it hot at night instead of desert cool. So there is little or no time that is GPU friendly.

Doh! Broccolium did my idea.

Damn. Sorry about that, Splododyne. It’s the first decent idea that popped into my head when I saw the theme.

We can both make our own take on the same idea, though.

“That M*********er is Not Real!”

Open: The lizard man head was decapitated from a downloaded model. I made the rest, but going with “open” because the lizard head is the main feature.

Just in case some of you don’t get the title…

No problem. Backup idea: peril sensitive sunglasses of Hitchhiker’s guide.
